Get the Funnywordmug. 1. Facetious in a conniving way, all while grinning with a stupid, shit-eating smile—one that involves the whole face, including the eyes, in a disingenuous display of faux sincerity. So infuriating it makes you want to commit war crimes.
2. Blatantly and unashamedly stupid, incompetent, or lazy, yet acting as though they are competent, in control, or somehow have your best interests at heart. Their entire demeanour is a masterclass in passive-aggressive condescension, making light of situations where they are clearly the problem.
3. The human embodiment of smug cluelessness, where incompetence meets unwarranted confidence, wrapped in a patronising, infuriating grin.

🔹 "Debbie just hit us with a fiferous ‘We’re all in this together, guys!’ —while doing absolutely nothing herself ."
